Michael Nesmith: Different Drum - The Lost RCA Victor Recordings (2-LP, colored Vinyl)

(Real Gone Music) 22 tracks, gatefold cover, blue smoke vinyl, includes 4-page insert with liner notes. Sealed new item with minimal pressure marks on the cover

The late, great Michael Nesmith was always to the beat of a "different drum" - whether it was writing that classic hit for Linda Ronstadt and the Stone Poneys, being a member of the wool-capped Monkees, or being one of the earliest forerunners of the country rock genre.

Now, following Nesmith's recent passing, Real Gone Music and Second Disc Records are proud to honor his legacy with a major dive into the Nez archives. Different Drum: The Lost RCA Victor Recordings features 22 tracks from the RCA Victor archives, each previously unreleased on vinyl. On six RCA albums released between 1970 and 1973, Nesmith flourished as a singer, vocalist, songwriter, bandleader and producer under the aegis of RCA Nashville legends Chet Atkins and Felton Jarvis.

With bandmates including legendary pedal steel guitarist O. J. Red Rhodes, John Ware and John London, Nesmith pioneered country rock with a spiritual and searching style all his own. Different Drum brings some of his most remarkable musical explorations from this period to record for the first time from this vibrant era, including cosmic reinterpretations of Monkees favorites like Tapioca Tundra, Magnolia Simms, Circle Sky and Listen to the Band unheard outtakes like American Airman and Six Days on the Road, very different alternate takes on Different Drum, Dedicated Friend and Tengo Amore, and even an early version of Marie's Theme from his iconic multimedia project The Prison.

The mind-bending music on Different Drum was mixed from the original multitracks by Andrew Sandoval and mastered by Vic Anesini at Sony's Battery Studios, while papa Nez himself contributed insightful comments to the liner notes by The Second Disc's Joe Marchese, who also pens a poignant tribute to the creative, generous soul of Michael Nesmith. A beautiful jacket featuring two LPs in Blue Smoke vinyl and a four-page insert with rare photos of the foto by renowned photographer Henry Diltz complete this groundbreaking package.

Different Drum is a widescreen journey through the world of one of the greatest and most beloved icons of rock music iconoclasts. Do not take our word for it, listen to the band!

Michael Nesmith

  Winonah

Damit kam Michael Nesmiths Amtszeit bei RCA zu dem von beiden Seiten vereinbarten Ergebnis. Es gibt einfach kein Verständnis für das Ausmaß von Nesmiths Enttäuschung, als er vom mega-verkaufenden Bubblegum zum bahnbrechenden, aber kläglich verkaufenden Country Rock überging. Sein Bubblegum-Publikum verflog (keine Überraschung dort), aber er konnte kein neues finden. Es besteht kein Zweifel, dass seine erste Karriere viele Menschen davon abhielt, seine zweite Karriere ernst zu nehmen, aber schon jetzt verändert ihn die Geschichte. Seinem Namen ist immer "ex Monkee" vorangestellt.

Unter dem Titel'Pretty Much Your Standard Ranch Stash' wurde Nesmith's RCA Swansong im September 1973 veröffentlicht und konnte nicht einmal untertauchen. RCA hat sich nicht die Mühe gemacht, einen einzigen zu ziehen. Die B-Seite des Albums enthielt Wiederaufnahmen alter Lieder, darunter auch der FFV, die kürzlich von Townes Van Zandt wiederbelebt wurden. Die A-Seite beinhaltete ein Remake von einem von Nesmiths großen Hits als Songwriter, Some Of Shelly's Blues, und drei neue Songs, was darauf hindeutet, dass sein Brunnen trocken wurde. Winonah wurde gemeinsam mit James Miner und der aufstrebenden Country-Sängerin Linda Hargrove geschrieben.

Nachdem Leon Russell ein paar ihrer Songs für Hank Wilson Is Back aufgenommen hatte, traf Hargrove den Nashviller Session-Mann/Produzenten Pete Drake, der sie Nesmith vorstellte. Nesmith schrieb diesen Song nicht nur mit ihr, sondern verpflichtete sie und seinen langjährigen Steelgitarristen auch zu seinem neuen Joint Venture mit Elektra, Countryside Records. Das Land wurde verlassen, als Elektras Gründer, Jac Holzman, ging. Auf der einen Seite störte Nesmith der Mangel an Erfolg nicht. Er hatte etwas von seinem Affengeld versteckt und 1980 erbte er über fünfundzwanzig Millionen Dollar von seiner Mutter, die Liquid Paper erfunden hatte. Also tat er nicht weh - wahrscheinlich nur ein wenig.
